Details: The Russian Ministry of Defence reported an alleged attack on „the civilian infrastructure of the city of Sevastopol with US-supplied ATACMS tactical missiles equipped with cluster warheads“.
Mikhail Razvozhayev, the so-called governor of Sevastopol, confirmed three deaths, including two children, and over 100 injuries.
He also lamented that the strike took place on Holy Trinity Day, despite the fact that the Russian Federation attacked Ukraine all the same, specifically Kyiv Oblast and Kharkiv, both day and night.
The assistant to the Russian health minister stated that the attack on Sevastopol injured 124 people, including 27 children.
According to social media, people were killed on Sevastopol’s Uchkuyivka beach.
Yuri Grishan, the mayor of Magadan, stated that the attack killed the daughter of Magadan’s deputy mayor, Oleg Averyanov, who was on holiday with her parents in Sevastopol, according to TASS.
Update: Later, Razvozhaev claimed that the number of people who were injured had risen to five, out of whom three were children.
In addition, he stated that five children are in intensive care, while the rest of the people affected by the attack received injuries of light and moderate severity.
Background: Air defence systems responded to an attack on the occupied city of Sevastopol (Crimea), shooting down five targets, the Russian-appointed occupying authorities of Crimea claimed.
Three people were killed and 56 injured, including three children, in a Russian airstrike on Kharkiv on Saturday.
